hey guys my mates got an Au series 1 futura on gas, there is a problem when he accelerates meaning the car shudders like its misfiring now that on petrol, when its on gas the car backfires and carry's on.

the gas system is 6 months old and was professionally fitted, now from what i no when u put a car on gas u change the spark plugs and leads , so that was my first place to go meaning check leads + plugs for problems.

this is the other stuff im thinking it could be.
coil, dizzy, injectors(leaning toward this)

any help is muchly appreciated

as such i haven't checked leads or plugs will do that tomorrow its to fkin cold atm


cheers kenay

if it does it on both i would say it is a timeing problem,but a bung lead will make it do that to.

yea it sounds like timing, if you have an ohmmeter get it and check the leads, they should only be about 2-3k
